PD: Special chords in Queen songs

21 Mar 2004 07:00

Let us write a list of songs that make use of those. For a start I thought of only four types:

Augmented chords:
In The Lap Of The Gods...revisited, Leroy Brown, Sunday Afternoon, Bicycle Race, Dreamers Ball, Bijou, No One But You...
Augmented chords in Beatles songs:groups.google.co.hu
they seem to have applied augmented chords more frequently, especially Lennon.

Diminished chords: In Onyl 7 Days, The Show Must Go On, The Kiss, My Fairy King,
(there are much more diminished 7th chords in Queen songs...)

III (V of vi): '39, Action This Day, Coming Soon, Drowse, Friends Will Be Friends, Good Company, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, Is This The World We Created, Killer Queen, My Melancholy Blues, No One But You, Princes Of The Universe, Seaside Rendezvous

bVI: Bohemian Rhapsody, Coming Soon, Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Drowse, Good Company, Is This The World We Created, Need Your Loving Tonight, Play The Game, Seaside Rendezvous, Staying Power

VI (V of ii): Brighton Rock, Good Company, Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy, In Only Seven Days, Killer Queen, Lazing On A Sunday Afternoon, No One But You, Princes Of The Universe, Seaside Rendezvous

bVII (IV of IV): A Kind Of Magic, Bohemian Rhapsody, Brighton Rock, Drowse, Fat Bottomed Girls, Friends Will Be Friends, Hammer To Fall, In Only Seven Days, Killer Queen, Mad The Swine, Modern Times Rock N' Roll, Need Your Loving Tonight, No One But You, Play The Game, Save Me, Scandal, Seaside Rendezvous, Spread Your Wings, These Are The Days Of Our Lives
